I don't want to go home for holiday break. I'd much rather stay at Hogwarts. It's not very fun at home, and mother makes me uncomfortable sometimes.

She says some really mean things, especially to my friends during my birthday. And to me, as well. It doesn't seem like the sort of thing a mother should do.

But she does love me. She's always telling me that. It makes me feel like an awful daughter that I don't want to go home to her, but at the same time, I'm starting to wonder if the trouble isn't with me.

It... It can heal injuries. And Mother makes a potion from it to make her look younger.

WOW REALLY??? OH MY GOSH YOUR HAIR'S SO BEAUTIFUL OF COURSE IT HAD SOMETHING REALLY SPECIAL ABOUT IT!!!!!

................um

but if she's just protecting you for your hair so she can stay younger...that's using you. My dad tells me to avoid people like that.

Really! And thank you, I'm glad you like it!

Oh, but I'm not supposed to tell anyone! So... Don't tell, okay?

But she's my Mother. Mothers don't do that, do they? She has to at least love me, right?

...Not everyone that is a mother is nice. I know I complain about my parents, but some people hit their kids or starve them. And you said she says some really mean things sometimes, right?

I think your mother is not a very nice lady at all.

That's true. I wasn't thinking of it like that, because even though she's really mean sometimes she's never hurt me physically...

Do you really think that, Xion?

[whoeverlooks.livejournal.com]

Yes. And I want to get you away from her, I think a lot of people do.

[magichairbrush.livejournal.com]

Oh.

I didn't know that.

I end up reading a lot of books at home...my favorite ones have knights saving princesses from evil witches, so I like to think it'd be something like that.

[magichairbrush.livejournal.com]

Reading is a wonderful way to pass the time, isn't it?

[Inkblots...]

This is a lot to think about, though.

But I'm going to try, Xion. To stand up to her more.
